About Me

Since the 1990s I have been very involved with fighting the military "don't ask don't tell" policy for gays in the military, and with First Amendment issues. Best contact is 571-334-6107 (legitimate calls; messages can be left; if not picked up retry; I don't answer when driving) Three other url's: doaskdotell.com, billboushka.com johnwboushka.com Links to my URLs are provided for legitimate content and user navigation purposes only.
My legal name is "John William Boushka" or "John W. Boushka"; my parents gave me the nickname of "Bill" based on my middle name, and this is how I am generally greeted. This is also the name for my book authorship. On the Web, you can find me as both "Bill Boushka" and "John W. Boushka"; this has been the case since the late 1990s. Sometimes I can be located as "John Boushka" without the "W." That's the identity my parents dealt me in 1943!

Greenberg train show in York PA shows coal mine, Noah's Ark, and a subway from The Matrix

I did travel to the Greenberg Train show in York, PA,
picking up some more interesting images.

The most interesting sight of all might have been a model of
a coal mine by “Capital Pen NScalers”, giving an idea of how the real world
makes a living for the rest of us. I’ve
never seen mountaintop removal demonstrated on such a model yet. I don’t know
if this simulates typical practice in West Virginia, or focuses on the
anthracite mines 100 miles to the NE of the show.

That same layout had a separate enclosure with a small train
making a hidden elevated loop with two tunnels, and some cars on the “Road to
Nowhere”, which go into a dead-ended tunnel (which actually exists in the Smoky
Mountains in North Carolina, movies blog, July 14, 2012).

But the most interesting exhibit was probably the large Lego
set by PennLUG. One corner of it had a
small city with what looked like the LA Courthouse, and a larger office
building. There was an “underground”
concept which resembled a bit the “parallel words” on the Antietam display
(Feb. 4, 2013). This time, the underground subway was a streetcar that ran back
and forth like the Toronto subway seen in the last “Matrix” movie. The lego exhibit also sported several little
offshoots on the corners into separate worlds.

It was hard to get the shot when the subway car was actually in transit.

Another exhibit had a “Noah’s Boat Yard” and paint shop, and
demonstration of men making an ark.

I was surprised to find out how big greater York is, driving
through it. The show was held in a
relative obscure building on the huge fair grounds.
